Bariloche: One of the most famous regions to visit in Patagonia is Bariloche and the Lake District. Towering mountains and glacier-fed lakes make this area perfect for sailing, hiking, and scenic drives. The city of Bariloche is a hiker's paradise, known for its great restaurants, delicious chocolate, and cozy fondue spots.

Perito Moreno and Los Glaciares National Park: Part of the Southern Patagonian Icefield, Los Glaciares National Park boasts massive glaciers that are best seen by boat. The most popular glacier is Perito Moreno, renowned for its close proximity to visitors. Adventurous travelers can even hike on the ice with a tour group.

Ushuaia & Tierra del Fuego: Ushuaia is the southernmost town of Argentina, and is popular for its point of heading to Antarctica. One of the best things to do here is visit Tierra del Fuego National Park, an archipelago with jagged peaks, sapphire waters, and marine life. Sail down the Beagle Channel, walk with penguins, and hike through this dream-like landscape.

Drive the Ruta de los 7 Lagos: Ruta 40 runs up the entirety of Argentina, making it one of the longest roads in the world - and one of the most scenic drives in the country. This route will take drivers to incredible mountain vistas, through the Lake District, and to the Patagonia region. The portion between San Martin de los Andes and Villa La Angostura (known as the Ruta de los 7 Lagos) is the most popular stretch of this route, and is driveable in one day.

Mendoza: Mendoza is one of Argentina’s most popular wine regions. We enjoyed hopping between wineries to taste their various flavors, and we also loved Mendoza’s beautiful outdoor scenery. Impressive mountains rise above the region including the nearby Mt. Aconcagua, South America’s tallest mountain. Hiking, rock climbing, and white water rafting are great activities in this area.

Mt. Aconcagua: Mount Aconcagua is the tallest mountain in the world outside of Asia. Many people travel to Mendoza, Argentina, to go on mountaineering expeditions to summit Mt. Aconcagua (a journey that takes 18 to 20 days). For those who do not want to go mountaineering, there are shorter treks available to go hiking in the Andes mountains in Argentina. The shortest hike is the one day trek to Confluencia, the first Aconcagua base camp.
